Sažetak
Humanist, scientist and athlete Žarko Dolinar (Koprivnica, July 3, 1920 – Basel, March 9, 2003) certainly stands out in the series of great names related to Koprivnica and Podravina throughout history. This paper provides an overview of data on the life and work of this important Koprivnica resident. The impetus for this research was a colloquium on Žarko Dolinar, which was organized by the City of Koprivnica, the City Museum and the Historical Society in 2020, on the occasion of its hundredth anniversary. In the first part of the paper, known and hitherto less known data from the biography of Žarko Dolinar are presented. As the Croatian Nobel laureate Lavoslav Ružička said about him, “Dolinar is one of the most complete and active academics I have ever met.” Considering that Dolinar was intensely involved in sports (he was also a world champion in table tennis), science (in Zagreb and Switzerland), and especially in collecting and social and cultural activities, his biography is very rich and complex, so this paper presents only a small contribution to the comprehension of its work, and is perhaps an incentive for new and more thorough research.
